About
Hopfully Brewing is an independent contract brewery with its head-office located in Dublin, Ireland. The brewery was founded by three friends with a shared love for beer, culinary and art. In 2017, we got together to accomplish an ambitious goal: building community and creativity through the world of craft-brewing, by combining modern beer brewing, and blending with visual arts. Passionate about working with vibrant, fresh talents, we work directly with up-and-coming local artists, commissioning different illustrators to design each one of our beer labels. Not only does Hopfully Brewing aim to promote the work of individual artists, but we are also committed to building an interdisciplinary network of creative people. Creativity is the essence of what we do as a company, by developing exciting and innovative beers with a unique flair and outstanding design.

The beers are brewed at Metalman and Lough Gill.

Can at Mum and Dads, picked up from Hop Central Dublin, 25/02/22. Murky orange with a decent off white head. Nose is ripe citric flesh, pine needle, grass, stoned fruits, passionfruit, melon. Taste comprises juicy citric flesh, orange pith, gooseberries, soft malts, melon, lychee, light pine flicker, grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come grassy hop bitterness. Decent IPA but lacking Nelson presence for me.

Can on 231 ... 1650 Enterprise to Dun Dealgan, from Craft Central, 24/02/22. Clear golden blonde with a good sized white cap. Nose is grape must, light funk, damp balsa wood, herb, dusty hops. Taste comprises citric sherbets, green berry funk, damp straw, salty kiss, gooseberries, light funk. Medium bodied, prickly carbonation, semi drying close with a noticeable salt lick and modest puckering climax. Decent hop tinged Gose ... obviously doesn't travel well outside Dublin. Would be 3.7 but knocked down for being over carbonated.

Can thanks to Paul. Appearance - highly carbonated like the previous beer from this brewer. Big foamy white head over a murky yellow body. Nose - grapefruit, dried orange, cake and light resin. Taste - orange, some sherbet, but don't think in a bad way. Lime marmalade. Palate - light bodied, tangy middle and finish. Overall - pretty good.

33cl can from eDrinks, Tallinn. Pours hazy pale golden with a white head. Certainly delivers as promised - lime and coconut is completely dominating the aroma. Sour, strange and somewhat refreshing, but feels a bit messy. Feels like a drink where someone forgot to balance out the lime juice properly....
